    METHOD FOR ANTICIPATING THE STARTING OF A THERMAL ENGINE
    The present invention relates to the control of hybrid powertrains, comprising at least one heat engine and an electric traction machine, and an automatic transmission connected to the wheels of the vehicle.
    More specifically, it relates to a method of anticipating the start of the engine in a hybrid powertrain comprising at least one engine, an electric traction machine, and an automatic transmission transmitting the driving power to the vehicle wheels in at least an initial state of its kinematic chain where the electric traction machine alone ensures the traction of the vehicle and the heat engine is cut, and at least one other target state where the engine provides a traction power.
    The powertrain of a motor vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission has a number of power train conditions (ECC) defined by specific combinations of gearboxes, couplers and power units available on the vehicle. . An objective of the transmission control is to place the GM P in all circumstances on the optimal drive train condition, whatever the driving conditions. The driving constraints to guarantee the desired behavior are among others the noise and vibration limitation (NVH for "Noise Vibration and Harshness"), the reliability limits of the mechanical components, the brio optimization (acceleration reserve, request of the driver, etc.). Finally, in a hybrid vehicle comprising by definition at least two sources of motive power, including a heat engine, the kinematic chain generally has at least one state where the engine is not necessary (and often extinguished), to limit fuel consumption.
    When the power train changes from a state where it is off, to a state where it is used to ensure or participate in the traction of the vehicle and compliance with the request for acceleration, its start is not instantaneous. There is a delay between the choice of a new target state, and the availability of the engine, due to its start time.
    FIG. 1 illustrates the differences that can exist in most cases between the maximum force envelopes of the kinematic chain states of the same transmission, as a function of the speed of a vehicle. In this example, the force available to the wheel is much less important on a first state that does not require the heat engine as a power source (ECC1 Electrical Kinematic Chain Status), or on a second thermal or hybrid ECC2 state. However, the ECC2 state is available only at speeds higher than the launch speed of the vehicle made by the ECCl, that is when the heat engine can be coupled to the wheels without risk of stalling. The state ECC1, which provides the wheel with a maximum force of purely electrical origin (ZEV), does not cover the entire envelope of maximum power of the powertrain in hybrid or thermal mode.
    When a transition from an electrical state to a hybrid or thermal state is triggered to follow the evolution of the torque request to the wheel, the start of the engine is not instantaneous. It is then possible that the state change time is long enough for the new state to exceed its reliability limit because its speed is too high to be able to couple the new state. This delays all the provision of the desired torque by the driver.
    By the publication US Pat. No. 7,407,026, it is known to send an anticipated start request to the heat engine, in prediction of a change of state of the kinematic chain causing it to start. This method consists in calculating the force available to the wheel without the engine, at the moment when it would have started. The available force can then be compared with the demand for force at the wheel, supposed constant.
    This method can only work if the transmission has only one state of electrical kinematic chain. Moreover, it does not take into account the possible power variations of the electric machine on this state. It causes the start of the engine when it is necessary, but it does not minimize the delay between the choice of a hybrid or thermal state, and the availability of the engine for the realization of the transition and the realization of torque required at the wheel.
    The present invention aims to achieve this objective.
    For this purpose, it plans to send the engine an early start request according to the longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle and its start time, before each change of state of the kinematic chain between an initial state not requiring a heat engine started, and a target state requiring it to start.
    The method is based on a calculation of the force available to the wheel on the non-thermal or non-hybrid states at the foreseeable time of starting the engine, taking into account the time required for this start, and to compare this force with the request. of target force to the wheel.
    Preferably, the conditions necessary to trigger an advance request for starting the engine are that it is off, and that the powertrain is unable to provide the target force request to the wheel corresponding to the request of the driver and / or driving aids (type cruise control for example).
    This method is applicable to all hybrid vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission, whose powertrain has at least one drive train condition that does not require a start-up engine and at least one state requiring it to be started.
    The present invention will be better understood on reading the following description of a nonlimiting embodiment thereof, with reference to the appended drawings, in which: FIG. 1 illustrates the differences existing between two kinematic chain states ( ZEV, and Thermal or Hybrid), FIG. 2 is a logic diagram of the developed strategy, FIG. 3 is a first sub-flow diagram F1 of the developed strategy, and FIG. 4 is a second sub-flow diagram F2 of the developed strategy.
    FIG. 2 presents all the data involved in the first phase F1 of the method, allowing the calculation of the anticipated maximum forces: V_veh: vehicle speed, P_max_ECC_1 to P_max_ECC_X, maximum power available on the non-thermal states or hybrids ECC1 to ECCX, of the kinematic chain, A_longl: the longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle, T_dem_Mth: start-up time of the heat engine varying mainly according to the temperature of the heat engine, estimated for example from the temperature of the coolant.
    The maximum anticipated forces on each state F_max_ant_ 1 to F_pa.x_a.nt_X are calculated in the first step F1. They are exploited in the second step F2, which also uses the target force request at the F_clble wheel, and the state of the Mth_State heat engine (off or running). The target force at the wheel F_c ± ble is assumed constant until the start of the engine. Step F2 elaborates the request for early start of the engine, Mth_luminated_req.
    This method makes it possible to anticipate the starting of the heat engine in a hybrid powertrain comprising at least one heat engine, an electric traction machine, and an automatic transmission transmitting the power of the heat engine and / or the electric machine to the wheels of the vehicle. in at least one initial state of its kinematic chain where the electric traction machine alone ensures the traction of the vehicle and the engine is not started, and at least one other target state where the engine provides traction power.
    FIG. 3 details the first step F1. It calculates a maximum force at the wheel F_max_calc_X on each state X of the kinematic chain, from the maximum power P_max_ECC_X on this state, and the anticipated speed V_ant at the actual start of the engine. The anticipated speed V_ant is calculated from an estimated speed reached after the start of the engine V_ant_calc, obtained from the speed gain V_delta estimated before starting the engine.
    The anticipated speed (V_azit) is equal to the highest term, between the calculated estimated speed (V_ant_calc) and a minimum calibrated speed (V_min_sat).
    The speed gain (V_delta) is estimated from the longitudinal acceleration (A_longl) and the starting time of the heat engine (T_dem_Mth).
    The various sub-steps of the calculation steps of F1 are: a) the calculation of the estimated speed gain during the starting of the heat engine V_delta, from the longitudinal acceleration A_longi and the starting time of the heat engine T_dem_Mth: V_delta = A_longi * T_d.em._Mth; b) calculating the estimated speed reached after starting the heat engine V_ant_calc from the speed gain V_delta and the vehicle speed V_veh: V_a.nt_ca.lc = V_delta + V_veh; c) calculating the estimated saturated speed V_ant from a calibrated minimum speed V_m ± n_sat and V_ant_calci V_ant = MAX (V_mln_sat; V_ant_calc); d) for each concerned state 1 to X, the computation of the maximum force to the wheel F_max_calc_X starting from the maximum power P_max_X and anticipated anticipated speed V_ant: F_max_calc_X = P_max_X / V_ant; e) for each concerned state 1 to X, the computation of the maximum force to the saturated wheel F_max ant X from F_max_calc_X and a maximum calibrated force, F_max_ant_X = MIN (F_max_ECC_X; F_max_calc_X).
    The method relies on a calculation of the force available to the wheel on the non-thermal or non-hybrid states after the time T_dem_Mth necessary to start the engine, and to compare this force with the target force at the wheel F_clble.
    The anticipated maximum force at the wheel on each state F_max_ant_X (equal to the maximum force at the saturated wheel calculated in e)), is equal to the least important term, between the calculated maximum force F_max_calc_X and a maximum calibrated force (F_max_ECC_X).
    The minimum speed calibrated V_mln_sat, introduced in c), avoids impossible operations in the course of the strategy. The variable F_max_ant_X represents the maximum anticipated force on the state X. It is the maximum force which one would have at the end of the delay T_dem._M.th, if the engine was started immediately.
    Figure 4 illustrates the second step F2. This step consists in elaborating the request for early start of the engine Mth_allée_req. For this, one determines the anticipated maximum force to the wheel (F_max_ant_X) on each state of the kinematic chain, and it is compared to the force request to the target wheel (F_clble).
    The conditions necessary for the decision to start the engine by the command Mth lit req are as follows: engine off: Mth_state = Off, purely electrical motricity conditions of the kinematic chain (non-hybrid and non-thermal) unable to provide the request for target force at the wheel: F_max_ant_l <F_target and ... F_max_ant_X <F_target.
    This last condition implies that a hybrid or thermal state provides a greater power than all the electrical states. If both conditions are met, then the start query Mth_lighted_req becomes "true". Otherwise, the request remains "false". Finally, an early start request Mth_lumed_req is sent to the engine according to the longitudinal acceleration of the vehicle A and its start time T_dem_Mth, before each change of state of the drive train, between an initial state that does not require engine started, and a target state requiring it to start.
    The proposed method has several advantages, among which: • its ease of implementation in a global transmission control strategy, • its real-time execution, making it possible to take into account the evolutionary parameters of the vehicle, such as the maximum power on the vehicles. kinematic chain conditions, vehicle acceleration, road gradient, etc. • its potential application on all GMP Hybrid architectures with at least two powertrain states including a heat engine and the other engine off.
